Crystal reports and page breaks

I have a requirement from our users that they want to add page breaks into the middle of a text field in our application.

This text is being printed in a Crystal report, so they would have the facility then to split text over 1 or more pages without coding needed to be done.

Is it possible to type in (use of varous keys e.g. Ctrl + Shift + A) a special character in the text field which Crystal Reports will process as a new page?

Any assistance would be gratefully received.you can use chr(13). Create new formula having this code

left({field},100)+chr(13)+mid({field},101,len({Feidl})

and set can grow propery to true

Crystal Report queries

In my Crystal Report's Details Section, the blank space after the last line is unnecessarily printed and this disturbs page length settings. How to delete the unnecessary lines below the last text in the Details Section, so that they are not printed as Blank.

I even dragged the dividing line to the last Text Box in the Details section, but the problem persists.

Secondly, when I issue a Print Command, a message box with no text appears. IT's title is "Crystal Reports ActiveX Designer" and an OK button. No other message.Hi,
In the details section set the property of Fit Section(Right click on the left side of Details section, select Fit section). Make sure that page footer does not have empty space.

Madhivanan|||I use CR 8.5, so you may need to tweak my examples a bit if you're using a different version.

1. To suppress the last blank line, go into the Format of that section. Find where you can check Suppress and click the 'x-2' next to it. Enter the following keyword in the formula section: OnLastRecord. This will suppress that section only on the last record.

2. To keep the program from popping up a box when printing, try Report.PrintOut False

crystal report help needed urgently

Hi, everyone

Can anybody pls help me in finding a solution for doing DOS printing through crystal report !!

My problem is my report has to get printed on a dot matrix printer and on a contineous stationary. and printing in windows based form is strictly not allowed.

I tried exporting the report in text format and printing. But the problem here is all the data exported gets compressed too much i.e. the space in 2 columns gets reduced too much and sometimes some data also gets deleted.crystal report preview is totally fine. Also I want to use Different pitch settings in the same report. I have seen that the lines dont get exported in text file. so i am confused what to do and how to do

Can anybody help me out fast.
